Texas Sculpts V call for artists

A summer-long juried exhibition celebrating sculpture across Texas

July 11 – August 29, 2026

Texas Sculpts V is the ArtCentre of Plano’s annual juried sculpture exhibition, built to showcase work being made across Texas and give sculptors a high-visibility setting where work can be experienced in person all summer.

We’re building an exhibition that’s ambitious and welcoming, with thoughtful curation and strong presentation, so artists feel proud to be included and visitors leave with a deeper appreciation for sculpture in Texas.
